A check-in can change a life.đź’™

Not sure how to start? That’s okay.
This guide offers simple, compassionate ways to support someone you care about—whether it’s a friend, family member, or colleague.

Because you don’t have to be a therapist to make a difference. One moment of care can open the door to healing.

Something soft, safe, and powerful is coming October 15th.
A space for us, by us. 🌸

Neurodivergent women of color deserve rooms where we don’t have to mask, explain, or shrink. This is that room.

This month, we're excited to highlight JoAnna LaFratta, a compassionate and skilled Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) on our team at Awaken Wellness Center.

With a background in working with veterans, first responders, and couples, JoAnna brings her heart, knowledge, and unique style to every session. Clients often describe her as deeply validating, warm, and empathetic.

🧠 Areas of Focus:
- PTSD, Trauma recovery
- Relationship challenges, intimacy
- EMDR, CBT, mindfullness

💬 Therapist’s Perspective:
I love this work because it allows me to walk alongside others as they create space for their experiences and embrace the fullness of life with kindness, presence, and deep listening.

Outside of sessions, JoAnna enjoys yoga and being outdoors, which brings balance and joy to their life and work.

We're so grateful to have JoAnna as part of our community.
If you're interested in working with her, you can learn more or schedule a consultation by emailing JoAnna@awakenwellnesscenter.com.

You are not behind. You are not failing. You are healing. đź’™

At Awaken Wellness Center, we believe rest is progress.
You don’t have to explain, perform, or rush your recovery to be worthy of care.

→ It’s okay to take up space.
→ It’s okay to pause.
→ It’s okay to heal at your own pace.

💙 Take what you need. We’re here when you’re ready.
